A1+
[12:53 pm] 02 November, 2006
Today, the former pilots of "Armenian Airlines" Ltd initiated a rally
of complaint opposite the RA Government.
They assemble in the same place every Thursday, on the day of the
government's session, and demand their salaries.
Reminder: 343 ex-workers of "Armenian Airlines" haven't got salary
(over 186 million AMD) for 6 months. "Last time we were received
by Manuk Topuzyan, the head of the Personnel. Mr. Topuzyan claimed
that our demand was justified and supported us. In his words, he had
turned to the RA Prime Minister in this connection but the latter
didn't reply to him."
"We believe none of them. They all deceive us," said one of the
pilots. Edik Revazyan, board engineer, added that as far as they
know the company has 200 million AMD but Mr. Gambaryan, head of the
bankruptcy committee, doesn't give it saying, "Though we have money
we haven't been ordered to distribute it."
Under Article 5 of RA government's decision (March 27, 2003),
"Armenian International Airlines" Company was to pay back the debts of
"Armenian Airlines" from the sum allocated by the RA government to the
pilots. The debt was to be repaid by December 31, 2003. "Three years
have passed since the government's decision but nothing has changed,"
complain the strikers.
By the way, the pilots have turned to the RA President and Justice
Minister with the same request but so far they have got no answer to
their concern.
